The only thing i didnt like about Winchester ammo like that si the coating on the bullet was a pain to clean out of the barrel after shooting.
That is true but they are very goodto use.
I found Montana X-Treme worked the best to clean theLubalox black oxide coating out.

I use Liquid on the bore cleaning solvent But on the Copper Solvent I like the Cream the best.

been reading a bit about this boolit. Says it offers rapid expansion but then holds together for deep penetration. My friend took a 240lb axis buck with a .243 with the 95gr xp3. Buck went 5 yds a crumpled. I was impressed. Quartering away behind front leg and came out on opposite shoulder.
Does anyone know where to get these boolits for reloading
